Is there an expansion tank (Extrol, etc) in the system? Sounds like there's a
backflow preventer and the expanded hot water has no where to go except out
the T&P valve.
Also, look into raising that water temp a bit more:
"Warm, stagnant water provides ideal conditions for growth. At temperatures
between 200C-500C (680-1220F) the organism can multiply. Temperatures of
320C-400C (900-1050F) are ideal for growth. Rust (iron), scale, and the
presence of other microorganisms can also promote the growth of LDB. "
